Need help on Integrating with mongodb logs

[manojbadam]

Hi Team,

I'm trying to integrate the rsyslog with mongodb logs.

Currently, we have mongodb and rsyslog on the same container and mongodb is logging to syslog-facility local2 and rsyslog is capturing the requests (UDP port 514) and forwarding it to output. And now are planning to create a single central rsyslog daemon instead of running on each node. And so we separated the mongodb and rsyslog processes to two separate containers.

With the volumes-from approach, im not sure how can i integrate the mongodb logs (logging to local2 facility) to rsyslog container.

Any suggested path to proceed further.

Thanks in advance
